Liz Chambers is the owner of Elizabeth Chambers Cellar and Silvan Ridge Winery. Carolyn Chambers, Liz's mother, bought Hinman Vineyards in Eugene, Oregon in 1991 and renamed it Silvan Ridge Winery. Her daughter, Liz, became the owner in 2012 after her mother's death. Liz then started Elizabeth Chambers Cellar in 2013, crafting her own distinctive Pinot Noir sourced from vineyards in the Willamette Valley.
